What guests say
9.1 / 10 · Wonderful on Booking.com, from 2,149 guest reviews
La Playa Inn earns near-universal praise for its walkable location near the beach and harbour, spotless rooms, and consistently warm, attentive staff who regularly go above and beyond. The main recurring gripe is a modest continental breakfast that guests find too carb-heavy or limited, and a handful of room-specific issues such as parking-lot-facing balconies and warm microfiber bedding. Overall sentiment across these reviews is strongly positive, with many guests explicitly stating they will return.
